Kent City Schools Child Find

Child Find is the process of identifying, locating, and evaluating children with disabilities who may be in need of special education and related services. Both State and local educational agencies are given the responsibility by federal and state laws to conduct child find activities so that children who need special services have the opportunity to receive those services.

For age Birth to 3 – An established condition known to result in delay or documented developmental delay.

If a need is identified, the child can begin receiving the appropriate special education and related services. In addition, though a child may not be eligible for special education or related services under IDEIA, he or she may qualify for Section 504 services, accommodations, and/or modifications if he or she has a physical or mental impairment that currently substantially limits some major life activity which causes the student’s ability to access the school environment or school activities to be substantially limited. Free assessments are available to families to determine whether or not a disability exists. Please contact the Kent City Schools Student Services Department at (330) 676-7680 for further information.
